Disney buying Fox is becoming more and more likely

When news broke that Disney might buy 21st Century Fox, it sounded too good to be true. Now according to a recent report, the accusation is becoming more and more likely.

According to CNBC, Disney could reach a deal with Fox within the next week or so. If the accusation sees the light of day, it could be worth $60 billion. Disney would notably come into possession of Fox-owned properties like X-Men and Fantastic Four, which is great news for the Marvel Cinematic Universe. It’d also mean that the Mouse House would also acquire the Avatar franchise. So whether Avatar 2 or Star Wars: The Last Jedi makes more money, Disney will come out on top.

What do you think about the Disney/Fox deal? Will it be the best thing ever or is Disney becoming too powerful in the entertainment industry?
